Harry Pankhurst received a get-well-soon message from Tottenham stars Harry Kane and Hugo Lloris after he underwent surgery.

A Tottenham-mad child who has been ill in hospital for weeks has received a special message from Harry Kane and Hugo Lloris after a video of him singing went viral.

Stuart Pankhurst posted a video of his eight-year-old son Harry, who had been in hospital for three weeks, singing Glory, Glory Tottenham Hotspur in his bed at Sheffield Children’s Hospital over the weekend.

My sons been in hospital and very poorly for over 3 weeks,having numerous operations to make him better, over this time he’s been very subdued and not wanting to do much but sleep, today I played his favourite song and this happened @SpursOfficial 😁 pic.twitter.com/uOty2EMgO3

The video struck a chord with Twitter users, and it racked up over 700,000 views.

Lincolnshire-based Harry and Stuart received hundreds of messages from well-wishers, and even caught the attention of Tottenham themselves, with the help of some high-profile supporters including TV presenter Adam Richman.

And that inspired two Spurs stars – Harry’s favourite player Kane and goalkeeper Lloris – to send the youngster a get-well-soon message.

“Hi Harry, me and Hugo here,” the England captain said in a video sent to his dad via the official Tottenham Twitter account.

“We’ve seen your video, huge inspiration. We just want to wish you all the best. Keep going and hope to see you soon.”

The clip “absolutely made his day” according to Stuart.

He wrote on Twitter: “Thank you all again for your amazing support and kind messages, he’s slowly getting better day by day, your support means so much to me and my family”

Just want to say a massive thank you to @SpursOfficial@HKane and Hugo lloris for sending Harry a msg wishing him well, it has put the biggest smile on his face and even made his twin brother cry as he’s a massive spurs fan and was so happy for his brother ❤️
